In the age of autonomous cars and algorithmic transportation, cities transform from gridlocked streets into a lush paradise. The Loop NYC city ushers in an era of dedicated thoroughfares for self-driving vehicles – “micro-highway loops” repurposed from major streets. With newfound pedestrian space, inhabitants & tourists alike enjoy 24 new miles of walkable area.
With streets re-purposed for the pedestrian, Loop NYC will introduce over 200 acres of parks. In this newfound abundance of interstitial territory, these inner-city peninsulas will allow individuals and communities to connect in novel ways. Loop NYC presents a vision of a city that strengthens communities and forges new relationships between them.
Loop NYC is a new framework for civic interaction, cultural enrichment, environmental resiliency, and equitable economic growth – fueled by the advent of autonomous vehicles.
